  • Spread: Ohio State -40

  • Over/under: 52.5 points

hio State 52, Marshall 7: Bill Rabinowitz of The Columbus Dispatch says, "The Thundering Herd have shown some explosiveness in the run game, but a quarterback with a completion percentage of 44% does not bode well against the Buckeyes' suffocating defense. Consider this a third straight tuneup before Big Ten play starts next week."

Ohio State 48, Marshall 0: Joey Kaufman of The Columbus Dispatch says, "The storyline to watch is whether the Buckeyes can shut out a second straight opponent, a feat they last accomplished in 2009 when they held Toledo and Illinois scoreless in consecutive weeks. It’s a real possibility considering the state of Marshall’s offense, which ranks toward the bottom of the Football Bowl Subdivision by most advanced metrics. They are 94th in expected points added (EPA) per play."

Ohio State 56, Marshall 7: Rob Oller of The Columbus Dispatch says, "Now that Ohio State has the hang of getting out to a fast start − Western Michigan heads are still spinning − I expect the Buckeyes to go 0-60 mph in a finger snap every week, or at least until Oregon on Oct. 12."
